Tottenham and Chelsea weigh £65m move for striker Nicolas Jackson
Chelsea Football Club have listed Senegal international striker Nicolas Jackson among the players they are prepared to sell this summer, with an asking price reported at around £65 million. Jackson, who returned to Chelsea after a loan spell at Bayern Munich, has struggled for regular playing time and scored 30 goals in 81 appearances for the club.
Tottenham Hotspur are reported to be interested in acquiring Jackson, and the player is said to be open to a transfer that would give him more first‑team opportunities. While no formal negotiations have begun, Tottenham are expected to consider the fee and may look to negotiate a lower amount. The potential move comes as Chelsea continue to reshape their squad under manager Xabi Alonso, who has already placed price tags on several other forwards, including Liam Delap and Marc Guiu.
